MMA Pavement Markings: The Cost-Effective and Durable Choice
About Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) Paint
Methyl methacrylate (MMA) paint is a two-component liquid traffic paint. MMA is one part pigmented resin and one part catalyst. Mix ratios are somewhat flexible, depending on use and application equipment. MMA forms a strong bond to pavement surfaces for increased durability and longevity compared to standard traffic paint.
Soy-based traffic marking paint offers a greener, more sustainable alternative to traditional options. Aexcel Corporation offers a wide variety of quality traffic paint products, including our eco-friendly BioStripe® soy-based traffic paint. This product offers numerous advantages that make it a better choice over conventional traffic paint for a range of applications.
Benefits of Toll Processing
Toll paint manufacturing is a process that allows producers to outsource their manufacturing needs to an expert. Toll paint manufacturers leverage their experience, technologies, and equipment to make various paint types, container sizes, and batch volumes. Here are some benefits of toll processing:
Methyl methacrylate (MMA) is a commonly used durable two-component polymer traffic marking system. MMA has extensive advantages over alternatives. MMA endures the fiercest weather conditions and extended heavy wear patterns, making it perfect for high performance road-marking needs.
There’s an old line in the paint business: “We put the quality in. It’s up to you to get it out.”
Aexcel had a crew attending this year’s ATSSA Traffic Safety Convention in Phoenix, Arizona in February.
Here are a few of our observations and highlights:
- Work Zone Safety has grown to become the industry’s highest priority; protecting both roadside workers and motorists.
- In fact, National Work Zone Awareness Week is April 17-21, 2023.
- Orange markings may be specified to reinforce work zone safe driving.
- Increasing painted lines to 6” is gaining attention. Greater visibility is the watchword.
- Highly reflective paint stripes improve the transition to automated vehicles.
- Retro-reflectivity (nighttime pavement markings visibility) is a hot topic.
- The new federal retro-reflectivity standard has made waves in the industry.
- This is good news for those who produce measurement equipment and those who promote durable, hi-visibility coatings.
- Staffing is more important than ever.
- We noted a large number of younger professionals. These people were well versed in the industry.
- One extra-cool machine was exhibited: RoadPrintz’s robot-painter. Their motto is “No Boots On the Pavement.” Their equipment reduces labor and speeds the application of auxiliary markings.
- Last, but not least, traffic paint materials and product availability should be back in balance this year.
Driveways are usually exposed to vehicle fluids, UV rays, rain, and snow. A good seal coating protects your home driveway from abrasion, weather, and chemical damage and improves its appearance. While contractors often use BioSealcoat® asphalt sealers, here we will discuss an option best-suited for homeowners. This post will explain how to apply driveway sealer with a roller in four easy steps, as well as the best driveway sealer to use.
